An example of a punnet square is if you have the heterozygous Bb genotype. The punnet square would have a big B and a little B at the top and on the side. The first square would be BB, the second one would be Bb, the third would be Bb, and the fourth would be bb. the possibility that the child has the bb genotype is 1/4.

∙ 10y agoTo fill in a Punnett square, list the possible alleles from each parent along the top and side of the square. Then, combine the alleles in each box to determine the possible genotypes of the offspring. Finally, calculate the frequencies of each genotype based on the Punnett square outcomes.

∙ 11y agoA punnet square is used to work of genotypic and phenotypic ratios for different crosses of animals. Therefore in a punnet square you will find the genotypes of the offspring that resulted from the cross (mating).

∙ 12y agoTake the phenotypes of the two parents and have them above and next to a box:
(say that the mother is AA and the father is Aa)
....A A
A AA AA
a Aa Aa
Genotypic ratio: 2 homozygous dominant: 2 heterozygous: 0 homozygous recessive
Treat it like a multiplication table. Take the allele from the top and the allele from the side to get two alleles in each box. (If the dominant allele is present, have it be first)

Tool used to predict results in Mendelian genetics; shows all the ways in which alleles can combine
To fill out a Punnett square for a genotype like RrYY, you would list the possible alleles for each parent horizontally (Rr for one parent, and YY for the other) and vertically. Then, combine the alleles to fill in the squares (RY, Ry, rY, ry) to show the possible genotypes of offspring resulting from this cross.

A capital letter in a Punnet Square represents a dominate allele.
A Punnett square is a diagram used to predict the possible genotypes of offspring in a genetic cross. It displays all possible combinations of alleles that parents can pass on to their offspring.

Reginald Punnett was a British geneticist who co-developed the Punnett square, a visual representation used to predict the outcomes of genetic crosses. His work in pea plant genetics with William Bateson helped lay the foundation for the field of genetics.
A banana is a good example of a punnet square since it has absolutely nothing to do with a punnet square.
